Description
Coin survived the Empire's collapse without his face ever becoming known and led his own Imperial remnant faction. Many thought him dead, but he turned his followers into a crime syndicate and, as Lord Janu, collected protection money from merchants on the moons of Shakari and ran fixed gladiator fights.
One of his fighters was the Hutt Rotta, working off a debt; Janu promised him freedom but planned to have him killed in his final bout. Around 14 ABY Din Djarin foiled the plan and, after learning from Rotta who Janu really was, stormed his seaside estate with Garazeb Orrelios and captured the commander alive. On Adelphi Coin was handed to the New Republic, and his interrogation revealed that the Hutt Twins were working with the Imperials.
